100% Women Peak Challenge and Offers for Women Media dossier 100% Women campaign Media dossier 100% Women Peak Challenge and offers for women “Women should be able to achieve their full potential in Switzerland – even when on holiday. That’s what 100% Women is all about. A campaign created by women for women, with the aim of uniting them and providing a different perspective and new experiences – particularly in outdoor sports.” Letizia Elia, Head of Business Development and Member of the Executive Board of Switzerland Tourism The campaign in brief One of ST’s focus points for 2021 will be women and their needs. The international campaign consists of two core elements and will be launched on 8 March (International Women’s Day). • 100% Women Peak Challenge: we take women to the top – namely to all 48 four- thousanders in Switzerland! As part of the 100% Women Peak Challenge, we are calling on women to climb Switzerland’s highest peaks from 8 March to 8 September 2021 — in teams made up exclusively of women. The challenge will be tracked on an interactive landing page at peakchallenge.myswitzerland.com, where the climbers can show off their pictures taken on the summit via social media. • 100% Women – offers for women: together with the tourism industry, ST is delighted to present around 230 offers and events that are specially geared towards women and a female perspective of Switzerland at MySwitzerland.com/women. All experiences – ranging from just a few hours to several days – are led by women, to give them and their achievements a platform and provide other women with positive role models. The main focus was on offers taking place in the great outdoors – all as part of women-only groups. Exactly 50 years ago today, women were granted the vote here in Switzerland, while British mountaineer Lucy Walker became the first woman to conquer the Matterhorn 150 years ago. With the 100% Women campaign, Switzerland Tourism aims to give women in tourism a face, encourage them to embark on new adventures and connect them through tourism experiences. This applies in particular to outdoor activities and mountain sports, which is especially important during and after the pandemic. Launch and duration • 8 March 2021: launch on International Women’s Day! • 100% Women Peak Challenge: from 8 March to 8 September 2021 (six months) • 100% Women – offers for women: from 8 March 2021 to 8 March 2022 (one year) 1 Media dossier 100% Women campaign Campaign objectives • Attracting women as new guests with a challenge and offers specifically for women, especially in mountain and outdoor sports. • Giving women a face in tourism/mountain sports, creating role models and new offers. • Position Switzerland as a versatile (outdoor) destination (48 four-thousanders, a great variety of experiences in a small area) that is as open to women as it is to men. Why target women? “In aggregate, women represent a growth market bigger than China and India combined – more than twice as big, in fact. Given those numbers, it would be foolish to ignore or underestimate the female consumer. […] There’s no reason they should settle for products that ignore or fail to fully meet their needs, or that do so cynically or superficially. Women will increasingly resist being stereotyped, segmented only by age or income, lumped together into an “all women” characterization, or, worse, undifferentiated from men.” Michael J. Silverstein and Kate Sayre, Harvard Business Review, 2009 Potential in figures • National Geographic identified women-only travel as top travel trend for 2020 (Source: National Geographic, 2020). • Women make 80% of travel decisions, regardless of their travel companion(s) (Source: Forbes, 2014). • Of tourists who book adventure, culture or nature-themed travel, 75% are women between the ages of 20 and 70 (Source: Forbes, 2014). • Google search for “solo women travel”: increase of 32% in 2017, 59% in 2018 and 230% in 2019 (Source: Overseas Adventure Travel, 2014). • Demand has evolved from traditional wellness trips to a much broader field of interests. Switzerland Tourism sees great potential for attracting women as new guests, especially in the outdoor sector. • Motivating existing female outdoor sports enthusiasts to try out other outdoor sports o e.g. female hikers who might also enjoy mountain biking or mountaineering. • Women who are not yet outdoor sports enthusiasts o e.g. women who, until now, have only ever gone to the gym but who are also fit enough for mountaineering. Or women who are adept in climbing centres but have not yet trained on a real crag. And less sporty women who are looking for new experiences (e.g. a guided hike, bivouac experience…). • Women over 45 o Many women can focus on their own personal ambitions again, once their children have grown up and moved out. They often have plenty of resources in terms of time and money and are curious and motivated to learn something new. These women are savvy consumers, know what they want and feel 15 years younger than they really are, on average. 2 Media dossier 100% Women campaign The campaign in detail 100% Women Peak Challenge In brief The aim of the 100% Women Peak Challenge is to get women to the very top, namely to the highest mountain peaks in Switzerland. Switzerland Tourism is calling on both experienced and less experienced female mountaineers to climb all 48 of Switzerland’s four-thousanders in all-women rope teams (with a female mountain guide or as an individual rope team) over a six-month period (8 March 2021 to 8 September 2021). • The challenge will be continuously documented on the interactive landing page at peakchallenge.myswitzerland.com, where the climbers post their summit selfies. In addition, it shows which mountains have already been conquered and how many days are left. • The Peak Challenge is not about competing against one another, but rather about experiencing and achieving together. We hope that as many female climbers as possible will take part; peaks may be climbed several times. ST would like to give all these women a face (summit photo). • In addition to experienced mountaineers, the challenge is also aimed at encouraging sporty women with little mountaineering experience to tackle their first, rather easy 4,000m peak together with a mountain guide. • As a reward, all participants will receive a great gift for finishing, consisting of a carabiner and a T-shirt from Mammut. Participation • Female climbers from all countries may participate in the challenge. Every all-female rope team that successfully climbs a peak and shares a summit selfie on social media using the hashtag #peakchallengeNAMEOFFOURTHOUSANDER (e.g. #peakchallengeallalin or #peakchallengebreithorn) and #Ineedswitzerland is considered a participant in the challenge. No registration is required. • The organisation and execution of the climb is the responsibility of each participant. • Switzerland Tourism provides information on the 4,000m peaks, refers to the routes and their difficulty levels (Swiss Alpine Club; SAC) as well as their corresponding safety recommendations. • As part of the challenge, mountain guide Caroline George will advise interested female climbers free of charge on choosing the right 4,000m peak for them. Link to the landing page Peakchallenge.myswitzerland.com 3 Media dossier 100% Women campaign Partners The 100% Women Peak Challenge is supported by the following partners: Swiss Alpine Club (SAC) • Competence and communication partner in the field of alpinism and mountain sports • The SAC Women’s Expedition Team will climb a 4,000m peak as part of the challenge Françoise Jaquet, President of the Swiss Alpine Club “As SAC President, I very much hope that the 100% Women Peak Challenge will encourage many female climbers to take the initiative and discover the mountains together with other women. I’m also curious to see which 4,000m peak our SAC Women’s Expedition Team will tackle.” Swiss Mountain Guide Association (SBV) • Competence and communication partner in the field of alpinism and mountain sports • Support with organising female mountain guides • Guidance from mountain guide Caroline George Rita Christen, President of the Swiss Mountain Guide Association “As a mountain guide, I have often experienced how female climbers can be more relaxed tackling challenges as part of a women’s rope team. And as President of the Mountain Guide Association, I’m delighted that my fellow mountain guides are playing an important role in the 100% Women Peak Challenge.” Mammut • Official partner of Switzerland Tourism, providing support in offer development, communication and marketing • Support for the campaign through three women-only mountain sports offers from the Mammut Alpine School • Two media trips accompanied by Mammut Pro athletes Caro North & Nadine Wallner • Reward gift for all participants of the challenge consisting of a high-quality carabiner and a Peak Challenge T-shirt Dr Oliver Pabst, CEO Mammut Sports Group “Diversity and equal opportunities are key components of our corporate culture at Mammut. It is how we succeed in sustainably mastering complex challenges as a team. Together with our partner Switzerland Tourism, we are offering women one of the most beautiful settings of all with the 100% Women Peak Challenge: the Swiss Alps. We will encourage other women to tackle their alpine aspirations and conquer a 4,000m peak in the Swiss Alps, with full force and with our Mammut Pro athlete and mountain guide Caro North. Together, we create a world moved by mountains!” Valais/Wallis Promotion and Zermatt Tourism • Tourism partners (the majority of the 4,000m peaks are in Valais) • Communication Two 100% Women media trips together with the Mammut Alpine School High-altitude ski tour with three 4,000m peaks from 8 to 11 March 2021 From 8 to 11 March, mountain guides and Mammut Pro athletes Caro North (Switzerland) and Nadine Wallner (Austria) will be climbing three 4,000m peaks in the Valais – the Allalinhorn, the Alphubel and the Strahlhorn – together with athletes and influencers Chemmy Alcott (UK), Caja Schöpf (Germany) and 4 Media dossier 100% Women campaign Johanna Ratschiller (Italy).

  • Alphubel (4206 M)
    Alphubel (4206 m) Hochtour | Walliser Alpen 500+1500 Hm | insg. 12:00 Std. | Schwierigkeit (3 von 6) Vom Gletscherdorf Saas-Fee aus präsentiert sich der Alphubel von seiner schönsten Seite - als gewaltiger Gletscherkoloss und als einer der markantesten Viertausender überhaupt. Der Normalweg führt auf der Rückseite des Berges vom Mattertal über die heimelige Täschhütte auf das große Gipfelplateau, das wie ein riesiger Tanzplatz zwischen Himmel und Erde wirkt. Technisch gehört die Normalroute auf den Alphubel zu den leichteren Routen auf einen der für das Tourenbuch so begehrten Viertausender. © Tourentipp.com 2021 Seite 1/3 1 2 3 4 5 6 Schwierigkeit Kondition Gefahrenpotenzial Landschaft Frequentierung Anfahrt: Von Deutschland mit dem Auto über Oberalppass / Furka oder via Lötschberg-Bahnverladung ins Rhônetal nach Visp. Weiter von Visp über Stalden ins Mattertal nach Täsch (1450 m). Empfehlenswert ist auch die Anreise per Bahn über Zürich und Visp direkt nach Täsch. Von Täsch aus führt eine kleine Bergstraße zur Siedlung Ottavan auf der Täschalp (2205 m), dort gebührenfreier Parkplatz. Bahnreisende können auch eines der regelmäßig verkehrenden Sammeltaxis nutzen (SFr. 10,-, Stand 2013). Ausgangspunkt: Siedlung Ottavan auf der Täschalp (2205 m) im Mattertal Route: Hüttenzustieg: Auf gut beschildertem, breiten Hüttenweg in ca. 1 ¼ Stunden direkt zur Täschhütte (2701 m). Die Hütte ist bereits vom Parkplatz aus zu sehen. Gipfelanstieg: Von der Täschhütte (2701 m) führt ein deutlicher Weg (Schild: Alphubelsee) zunächst Richtung Ostsüdosten über zwei der drei „Schreienden Bäche“ in den Chumibodmen. Nun am dritten Bach entlang, jetzt steiler durch Blockwerk in östlicher Richtung. Die deutliche Spur verliert sich in verschiedenen kleinen Wegen, die aber alle über weichen Gletschersand am großen Alphubelsee vorbei zum Anseilplatz auf einer Felsenrippe am südlichen Arm des Alphubelgletschers führen (3300 m).

  • The Matterhorn Centenary
    TI-IE MATTERHORN CENTENARY THE MATTERHORN CENTENARY BY B. R. GOODFELLO'IV (Five illustrations: nos. 50- 54) DWARD WHYMPER must have appreciated in his lifetime that his ascent of the Matterhorn and his own dramatic account of the ............. disaster had added immeasurably to the glamour of that incom­ parable mountain. So he must have realised the great contribution which he made personally to the greater prosperity of the people of Zermatt; they have long acknowledged this and the centenary was closely linked with Whymper"s name. But he could scarcely have foreseen the impact of to-day's mass affluence, of the rise of ski-ing and of universal publicity on the Alpine village he had known first over 100 years ago. We had all expected for some years that the centenary of the Matter­ horn ascent would be used by Zermatt for publicity on the grand scale. With the true mountain lovers' distaste for the prostitution of the Alps for commercial ends, many decided to keep away in 1965. But by doing so they missed a great occasion. For, although the Festival Week was unashamedly dedicated to Zermatt propaganda, the whole of the func­ tions were conducted in the very best of taste. Above all Zermatt, for this week, was the meeting place for mountaineers from all over Europe and from America, India and further afield. Enjoying the warm and generous hospitality of our Swiss hosts, we made many valuable new friendships and renewed old ones. The Alpine Club came in some strength, more than fifty in number, many with their wives and some with their families.

  • THE FUHRERBUCH of JOHANN JAUN by D
    • .. THE FUHRERBUCH OF JOI-IANN JAUN . • • THE FUHRERBUCH OF JOHANN JAUN By D. F. 0. DANGAR ' WING to 1-Ians' abnormal carelessness in regard to all matters appertaining to himself, the greater part of his mountaineering achievements are not recorded in this book at all. He is fortunately in the habit of leaving it at home, or it would long since have been destroyed or lost.' Thus \vrote Sir Edward Davidson in the Fuhrerbuch of Hans Jaun, in 1887. Covering a period of thirty-five years, the book contains but thirty­ one entries most of them signed by the best known amateurs of the time and it is therefore a very incomplete history of J aun's career. Although his habit of leaving his book at home is, no doubt, the chief reason for the many omissions, several of his Herren must bear a share of the responsibility. J. Oakley Maund, for instance, apart from signing with C. T. Dent an entry in reference to an ascent of the Bietschhorn, has written less than a dozen lines in the book, and he does not specifically mention a single one of the many expeditions he made with Jaun. Of two entries by Herr Georg Griiber, one covers a period of seven years, and neither Maund nor Middlemore makes mention of the work of that glorious week in 1876 which, as one of the participants held, ' was entitled to be considered from a purely climbing point of view as a tour de force unsurpassed in the history of the Alps.'
